Tommy Kirby – So full of life, love and pure imagination, that he deserves his own special place where we can connect with him – here, meow and always.
As a birthday tribute to Tommy we thought you might enjoy more entertainment from him. This is a part 2 to the last video. In this we get to see his humor and music flowing out of him. Where else would you get to hear “Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire” peppered with “The Price is Right Theme”, “All in the Family Theme” and rousing a cappella rendition of “Hark the Herald Angels Sing”, where even a dog joins in!
We hope this brings you joy and laughter on Tommy’s birthday.
I have been thinking about Tommy’s upcoming birthday a lot. I wanted to celebrate it in some way, wondering what he would want me to do for him. I have been missing his laugh. It’s one of my favorite laughs in the whole world. It’s just so freaking genuine. He had a variety of laughs, and I loved them all, but the one that brought a smile to my face in this very moment is him BUSTING out. It’s the BEST! Pure joy!
I believe what Tommy would want for his birthday is for everyone to be able to laugh with pure joy. My gut tells me he’d want me to do really truly stupid stuff just to make him laugh and to make everyone else laugh. I think it’d be easiest for me to make him laugh though because I always felt free to be a total goofball around him. I can imagine him now telling me to go for it and write totally insane stuff, but at the same time I feel all sentimental and not quite up to being a TOTAL goofball on his page yet.
BUT, I do know of a way Tommy can be his true, hilarious, yet genuine and sincere self to all of you…. if you use your imagination a little.
Tommy LOVES Joan Crawford & the movie Mommie Dearest. I say that in present tense because I almost feel like he’s up above urging me to say this in the present tense.
If you’ve ever heard Tommy imitating or performing Joan Crawford, picture his face, his expressions, his smile, his goofy laugh, and his sincerity and love within that laughter, and while thinking of all that, watch this video of Joan Crawford going to the door to accept her award on Oscars night. The speech starts after a minute into the video.
No doubt in my mind that Tommy would love to give this speech to all of you right now for his birthday, and of course he would do it in his own one-of-a-kind Tommy style – Hilarious, but also sincere, and with love. XO
